Hey All,
I am contemplating buying a '65 Oliver 1850 gas with one set of rear hydro. It appears to be in good condition with a few minor cosmetic items that need to be addressed. Mainly the exhaust manifold is cracked. Everything appears to be functional. Engine starts easy with no smoke. PTO and 3 Pt work normally.
My main question is reliability and no Oliver dealers around to fix major repairs such as engine or transmission issues. My other option is buying a John Deere with a large JD dealer in our area.
Any suggestions or ideas are much appreciated.
